Young Adult Historical
Samurai, assassins, warlords -- and a girl who likes to
climb Kano Murasaki, you may not realize it, but I have done
you a great favor. I have it in my power to give you a gift
that you don’t even realize you desire. Make yourself worth
my trouble, and you will be glad of it. Disappoint me, and
you will be very, very sorry. Though Japan has been devastated by a century of civil war,
Risuko just wants to climb trees. Growing up far from the
battlefields and court intrigues, the fatherless girl finds
herself pulled into a plot that may reunite Japan -- or may
destroy it. She is torn from her home and what is left of
her family, but finds new friends at a school that may not
be what it seems. Magical but historical, Risuko follows her along
the first dangerous steps to discovering who she truly is. The first volume of the Seasons of the Sword series! Can one girl win a war? Kano Murasaki, called Risuko (Squirrel) is a young,
fatherless girl, more comfortable climbing trees than down
on the ground. Yet she finds herself enmeshed in a game
where the board is the whole nation of Japan, where the
pieces are armies, moved by scheming lords, and a single
girl couldn't possible have the power to change the outcome. Or could she?
